“I have just one more comment i I promise it will be the last - the greatest enemy of the Palestinian people today - the more than 5 million Palestinian refugees who cannot return to their lands - is the Israeli occupation, the illegal Israeli occupation. When the occupation ends, then the Palestinians will be able to enjoy the exercise of their self-determination and resolve the problems they face for themselves. I now resume my functions as President of the Security Council. There are no more speakers inscribed on my list. I would like to thank all participants for their patience, commitment and contribution to today's debate. I would especially like to thank the staff of the Secretariat, in particular the entire support team that worked with us throughout this long day. A special thanks goes to the interpreters and translators.”

“On the other hand, if we wish to speak of the human rights situation in my country, I would like to propose to the representative of Israel that his country allow a delegation, as has been requested on a number of occasions by the Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People, to visit the occupied territories in order to see the human rights situation on the ground of the Palestinians living in territories occupied by Israel. We have our doors open to any delegation or committee that wishes to come and look at the human rights situation in my country, of which we are absolutely proud.”

“I shall now make an additional statement in my capacity as representative of Bolivia, which, I promise, will be very short. IfI may, I would like to read out rule 39 of the Security Council's provisional rules of procedure, for the benefit of the representative of Israel: (spoke in English) "The Security Council may invite members of the Secretariat or other persons, whom it considers competent for the purpose, to supply it with information or to give other assistance in examining matters within its competence." (spoke in Spanish) It was the Security Council that made the invitation. I believe that the immense majority not just of the members of the Council but of those who were kind enough to participate in this debate was very generous in warmly welcoming the involvement of civil society in today's debate.”

“A gender adviser position should be established in all operational headquarters, while leaders bear the ultimate responsibility to deliver. The United Nations high-level seminar on gender and inclusive mediation processes builds leaders' competence and capacity. Men must champion this cause as eagerly as women. We founded the Nordic Centre for Gender in Military Operations to engage with military actors in their work related to women, peace and security. We are your consistent partners, Mr. President, for a common, peaceful and secure future. Promoting women's participation is not a gesture to women; it is a question of effectively and sustainably preventing and resolving conflicts. The President (spoke in Spanish): I now give the floor to the representative of Albania.”

“We must connect the peace mediation tracks better and ensure that inclusion mechanisms complement, rather than replace, efforts to include women on the formal track. We must enhance conflict analysis with a gender perspective and support the gender mainstreaming of peace operations. Our support for United Nations reform, UN-Women, the Department of Political Affairs and the Department of Peacekeeping Operations is part of our response, as are the women mediator networks. Regional networks of women mediators are in New York now to explore opportunities for further cooperation. We must prepare the ground for inclusive processes even in initial peace talks and focus as much on women's inclusion and rights in the implementation of peace agreements as in the negotiation phase.”

“In South Sudan, Yemen, Afghanistan, Colombia, Syria and Liberia, women have found ways to engage. Their efforts increasingly coincide with those of the United Nations and regional organizations, as innovative inclusion mechanisms evolve, including subcommissions, situation rooms, women's advisory boards, and the Women's Peace and Humanitarian Fund. We would like to congratulate Ethiopia on its recently elected Madam President Sahle-Work Zewde. There is progress, but, as we approach the twentieth anniversary ofresolution 1325 (2000), we aspire to more. Women fill more leadership positions in the United Nations and elsewhere, but are still underrepresented at all levels of peacekeeping.”

“The Secretary-General's strong leadership is crucial, as evidenced by the United Nations system-wide gender parity strategy; the Informal Expert Group on Women and Peace and Security; the Women, Peace and Security National Focal Points Network; the Group of Friends of Women, Peace and Security; networks, including the Women's Military Network; and the increasing number of national action plans and strategies to implement them effectively. We benefit greatly from the consistent work of civil society, including the NGO Working Group on Women, Peace and Security and organizations like the International Civil Society Action Network, the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, and the Global Network of Women Peacebuilders, local women's groups and others.”

“I now give the floor to the representative of Norway. Ms. Skz'ire (Norway): I am making this statement on behalf of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Sweden and my own country, Norway. We thank Bolivia for initiating this open debate and welcome the annual report of the Secretary-General (S/2018/900). We are no closer to peace. Women's security and rights are still threatened, specifically targeted by violent extremists. Women refugees are exposed to violence. Women's rights defenders are increasingly vulnerable. Sexual violence is endemic. This year's Nobel Peace Prize laureates expose human suffering that tears people apart and undermines peace and show us how to respond. Let us. It has become decidedly harder to ignore women in peace and security efforts.”

“That is why we would like to reiterate our commitment to the women and peace and security agenda. We thank the Secretary-General for the recommendations he presented today in the run-up to the twentieth anniversary of resolution 1325 (2000). All States, together with the United Nations system and civil society, must work together in a coordinated fashion to achieve optimal implementation of this agenda. I now resume my functions as President of the Security Council. I give the floor to the Ms. Michelle Miintefering, Minister of State in the Federal Foreign Office of Germany.”

“In Bolivia, women have a majority not only in Parliament, but also in the other elected bodies. In the same vein, one of the most important measures for women's economic inclusion was the Community-based Agrarian Reform Renewal Act, which not only guarantees the participation of women in land restoration and distribution processes, but also prioritizes women's right to own land. Twelve years ago, only 10 per cent of women in Bolivia were owners ofland. Today, in 2018, 45 per cent of land ownership is in the hands of women. Bolivia has experienced 12 years of fundamental change, and without the role of women as agents of change, that transformation would not have been achieved. Today we enjoy economic, political and social stability that we did not have before.”

“We drafted a new Constitution, which was adopted in 2009 and established the right of women and men to participate freely in the creation, exercise and control of political power, on equal footing and under equal conditions. On that basis we focused on adopting measures to make progress in dismantling the patriarchal system and thereby breaking down structural barriers, mainly through the political and economic empowerment of women. We promoted women's participation in decision-making roles through the Electoral System Act, which establishes parity and alternation in the lists of male and female candidates for representative posts, making Bolivia the second country in the world with the highest representation of women in the Legislative Assembly.”

“First, we need empowered, free women, who are masters of their decisions and bodies, and who are economically independent. That is how they will be true agents of change. How do we achieve that? This is where States must show leadership and promote structural changes to combat inequality, poverty and discrimination. They should focus, first and foremost, on women. Bolivia was an unstable country. Between 2000 and 2003, social conflicts broke out against the privatization of water and in defence of national sovereignty over our hydrocarbon resource reserves. We needed a fundamental change. Therefore, one of the first measures of the current Government was to establish the Constituent Assembly, which was presided over by a woman indigenous leader.”

“Other cases with many challenges include those faced by the countries of the Lake Chad basin and their fight against terrorism imposed by Boko Haram, the stigma faced by its victims, as Deputy Secretary- General Amina Mohammed reported after her visit to that region, after which she went to the Democratic Republic of Congo, where she stressed the need to encourage women's participation in the electoral process. Other places where women face even more humanitarian complications are Yemen, Palestine and the Central African Republic, among others. Every year we meet to highlight the importance of implementing the women and peace and security agenda, ending sexual violence in conflict, ensuring accountability and calling for the inclusion of women in peace processes. But how do we do that?”

“While there are similarities, each country has its own reality and different challenges. We have highlighted the Colombian peace process because of the mechanisms used to promote women's participation and incorporate a gender perspective in the Final Agreement for Ending the Conflict and Building a Stable and Lasting Peace; and because of the gender balance in the personnel of the United Nations Verification Mission in Colombia, which is not seen in other peace missions. Another historic example of women who promote peace and reconciliation in my region are the heroic Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo. We also highlight progress made in parliamentary representation achieved in Somalia, the advances made in the Sahel region and Afghanistan, among others. Those are clear examples of the importance of women's political empowerment.”

“Among those advances, we can mention the establishment of UN-Women, the Office of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Sexual Violence in Conflict, the Informal Expert Group on Women and Peace and Security and others. However, despite those efforts, the implementation of the women and peace and security agenda continues to pose important challenges, mainly in this last point: the inclusion of women in peace processes. There are four pillars that make up the normative framework created by the Security Council: prevention, participation, protection and recovery. Each is equally important and they complement each other to ensure the optimal implementation of the agenda. Today we would like to emphasize the importance of prevention and how to achieve the active participation of women in peace processes.”

“Women face many forms ofviolence on a daily basis and in various situations, but none is more cruel or has such devastating consequences as the violence resulting from armed conflict - hence the importance of the historic resolution 1325 (2000), which recognizes this fact and underscores the fundamental link that exists between respect for gender equality and international peace and security. On the basis of that resolution and the seven resolutions adopted by the Council on the subject, the United Nations has undertaken many efforts and made significant progress in their implementation in order to effectively integrate a gender perspective in peace processes and promote the participation of women in them.”

“We are the victims of a patriarchal system, rooted in capitalism, that exacerbates inequalities and the economic, social and cultural oppression of women throughout the world. This is the fundamental problem. This is the system that social organizations, civil society, regional organizations and the international community as a whole must fight. However, there is no doubt that it is States that bear the primary responsibility for promoting structural changes that grant women the place that historically has been denied them. It is only through gender equality and the empowerment of women that we will bring about more just, inclusive and peaceful societies.”

“I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of the Plurinational State of Bolivia. I would like to thank Secretary-General Antonio Guterres not only for the report (S/2018/900) that he presented today but also for his commitment to the issue that has brought us here today and for his noteworthy efforts to ensure that our Organization as a whole sets an example in terms of ensuring the equitable representation of women. I should like also to thank the Executive Director of UN-Women, Ms. Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, and the representative of Palestinian civil society, Ms. Randa Siniora Atallah, for their briefings. History was written by men - men who have relegated women to a secondary status, devalued their role in society and engaged in inexcusable forms of violence against them.”

“I shall now make a short statement - I am sure it will be the last - on the way in which Bolivia is presiding over the Security Council. We agree that States must keep their remarks within the framework of the agenda for which a meeting is convened. Unfortunately, in many cases, that is not happening, and I could cite several examples. When we talk about the question of Palestine, some States talk about other matters. However, for this presidency, all Member States are on the same footing. This presidency will never cut off any State while it is speaking because we believe that the State knows what it is talking about and has every right to express itself with the utmost freedom in the Security Council. As long as we are presiding over the Security Council, therefore, that is how we will conduct ourselves. The meeting rose at 12:30pm.”

We should reiterate, however, that any action in the fight against terrorism must be conducted within the framework of international law and international humanitarian law in particular, so as to guarantee the protection of civilian lives and of workers from the various humanitarian agencies in the field. We reiterate our support for the Special Envoy's work, and for his conversations with the various parties at a so-called high diplomatic level. In that regard, we will be closely watching the results ofhis visit to Damascus in the next few days, and if necessary the presidency of the Council will convene a meeting to hear a report on his efforts.”

We want to emphasize that in the past few months there has been a reduction in military activity in various regions of the Syrian territory, thanks partly to the Syrian Government's consolidation of its control, but also to the efforts of the Astana guarantors, whose agreements must be reinforced if the aim is to reduce violence and facilitate peace and stability in Syria. In that regard, we are pleased with the results of the agreement between the Russian Federation and Turkey on Idlib governorate, which has allowed a demilitarized zone to be established there.”

IfI may comment on that, the problem is not just the illegal exploitation or trafficking of natural resources, but also the immoral distribution of the profits they bring. As Mr. Djinnit put it so eloquently, it is essentially a country's own citizens - in this case those of the Democratic Republic of the Congo - who should be benefiting from those profits.”

In that regard, we welcome MONUSCO's efforts and encourage it to continue its work in coordination with the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
